“…The results of this study are in line with previous research conducted by Harapan et al (2018), with the results of the study showing that there is a significant relationship between knowledge and attitudes toward preventing dengue disease and people who had good knowledge were 2.7 times more likely to have good attitudes, and people who had good attitudes were 2.2 times more likely to have good practices regarding dengue (13). Previous research conducted by Mbani et al (2021) showed that there is a relationship between the knowledge and attitudes of the head of the family and the prevention measures of DHF in the Oesapa Health Center working area in 2020 (14). The results of the study using Chi-Square get a p-value <0.0001.…”

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a viral infectious disease transmitted by the Aedes Aegypti mosquito as the main vector and Aedes Albopictus as a potential vector. The knowledge and attitudes of a mother become a benchmark for the mother's awareness of preventing transmission. Efforts to prevent transmission need to be made to reduce the risk of this disease. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge and mothers’ attitudes regarding the prevention of dengue fever in children in the work area of the Kawatuna Health Center 2022. The research method used was quantitative using a cross-sectional approach with a population of 35 mothers with children 6-12 years old and the sample used was 25. respondents. The measuring instrument in this study is a questionnaire and the analysis used in univariate and bivariate analysis. The results showed that the level of knowledge of the respondents in the good category, namely 22 respondents (88%), and for attitudes, namely there were 20 respondents (80%) who had a positive attitude, and there was a significant relationship between the level of knowledge of mothers' attitudes about preventing dengue fever in children. 6-12 years old in the work area of the Kawatuna Health Center with a p-value of 0.001 <0.05. Mothers in the work area of the Kawatuna Health Center are in the independent category, and have a positive attitude, and there is a significant relationship between the level of knowledge and the attitude of mothers toward preventing dengue fever

Background: Dengue fever is still a public health issue in Indonesia, and during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, integrated digital technology will be required for its control. This study aims to identify critical indicators influencing attitudes towards dengue control related to the potential for implementing digital technology. Methods: This was a cross-sectional survey, with 515 people willing to fill out an online questionnaire. The analysis was conducted using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). There were 46 indicators used to assess attitudes toward dengue control, which were organized into six variables: the need for digital information systems, perceptions of being threatened with dengue, the benefits of dengue control programs, program constraints, environmental factors and attitudes in dengue control. Results: The source of information needed for dengue control was mainly through social media. There was a positive relationship between perception of environmental factors to perception of dengue threat, perception of program constraints, perception of program benefits, and perception of digital technology needs. Perception of program benefits and threatened perception of dengue have a positive relationship with perception of digital technology needs. Conclusions: This model showed the variables perception of digital technology and perception of benefits had a positive association with attitude towards dengue control

“…This research is consistent with previous studies, which show that unemployed individuals are more likely to contract DHF (Damayanti, & Mega, 2022). In contrast, a study conducted in East Nusa Tenggara, observing all respondents who contracted DHF, found that they were employed (Mbani, Limbu, & Landi, 2021).…”

Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease caused by the dengue virus transmitted through the Aedes aegypti mosquito and is most commonly found in tropical regions. In contemporary society, there is significant emphasis on infectious diseases. DHF is a tropical disease that falls under the third indicator of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). DHF poses a significant global public health problem. Currently, its prevalence is spread across more than 100 countries worldwide. Over three decades, the severity of DHF has shown a significant increase across the Southeast Asian region. In 2021, Indonesia recorded a total of 73,518 DHF cases with 705 fatalities. In 2022, there were 143,266 reported cases resulting in 1,237 deaths. As of March 2023, there have been a total of 17,434 reported cases with 141 fatalities. These DHF case incidence figures indicate a considerable increase.Purpose: To reduce DHF cases in South Tangerang City by creating an innovative digital application which is called “Pakar” from an economic loss perspective.Method: This research adopts a mixed-method approach with exploratory research. The research begins with a qualitative phase to design the application, followed by a quantitative phase to assess the effectiveness of the developed application. The study commences with a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) involving various stakeholders, including the South Tangerang City Health Office, public health centers, and community health workers. Subsequently, the application is developed and tested in selected pilot areas as an initial project. Further testing is conducted using a one-group pre-test post-test design. The experimental procedure includes a pre-test as an initial observation, followed by the intervention, and concludes with a post-test as a final observation.Results: During the pre-test, it was observed that DHF patients had a moderate level of knowledge, with a cumulative percentage of 46%. In contrast, the majority of respondents in the post-test had a high level of knowledge regarding DHF diagnosis, with a percentage of 76%. The paired t-test showed a t-value of -6.306 and the corresponding probability or significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.005).Conclusion: The expert system application, as an innovative approach for DHF mitigation and the experimental assessment of economic impact, is effective as indicated by the pre-post test. Furthermore, it is crucial to consider the economic impact of the costs incurred by DHF patients by placing greater emphasis on improving environmental cleanliness efforts.
